jis din se maine tumko dekhaa hai
is dil me ik sapna saa jaga hai
ijaazat ho to sunaa dun
jis din se maine tumko dekhaa hai
is dil me ik sapna saa jaga hai
ijaazat ho to sunaa dun

is dil ne jabse tumako paayaa hai
kuchh chori-chori maine bhi socha hai
agar ijaazat ho to bataa dun
agar ijaazat ho to bataa dun

shokhi hai nazaqat hai, nazro me sharaarat hai
aisa bhi sharamana kyaa, kah do ki mohabbat hai
kahane ki zarurat kyaa, baato ki haqiqat kya
chhalke na nigaaho se, aisi bhi muhabbat kya
kuchh khoyaa-khoyaa dil bhi rahta hai
kuchh chori-chori maine bhi dekhaa hai
agar ijaazat ho to bataa dun
ijaazat ho to sunaa dun

julfon ko sanwara bhi, chehre ko nikhara bhi
ab to de do jaane jaa baanho ka sahara bhi
masti ka jamana bhi, khushiyon ka khazana bhi
paya jo tumhe paya jeene ka bahana bhi
duniya kitni rangin duniya hai
is dil me ek sapna sa jaga hai
ijaazat ho to sunaa dun
agar ijaazat ho to bataa dun

dil ko naa sambhaalun to, sine se lagaa lun to
hotho ki jo laali hai, usako mai churaa lun to
yun nazare na daalo tum, ab dil ko sambhaalo tum
dekhe na hame duniyaa, sine me chhupaa lo tum
na jaane mujhko dar kyo lagata hai
kuchh chori-chori maine bhi dekhaa hai
agar ijaazat ho to bataa dun
jis din se maine tumko dekhaa hai
is dil me ik sapna saa jaga hai
ijaazat ho to sunaa dun
ijaazat ho to sunaa dun

From the day my gaze first met your light,
A dream, a sunrise, bloomed within my heart.
If you permit, I'll speak the words that start,
From the day my gaze first met your light.
A dream, a sunrise, bloomed within my heart.
If you permit, I’ll speak the words that start.

Since this heart has known your tender grace,
Secrets I've harbored, in a hidden space.
If you permit, then let me now impart,
If you permit, then let me now impart.

Mischief dances in your eyes' embrace,
A subtle charm, a delicate space.
Why blush so deeply, veiled in sweet pretence?
Whisper the truth, declare your love's defense.
What need of words when hearts begin to yearn?
What truth in talk when burning passions burn?
If love overflows, a visible tide,
What use is love that hides deep inside?
A heart bewildered, lost in reverie,
Secrets I've harbored, wild and free.
If you permit, then let me now impart,
If you permit, I’ll speak the words that start.

Your tresses adorned, your face alight,
Now, my beloved, grant me your arms' might.
A time of joy, a world of sweet delight,
Find in your arms, my reason, my light.
The world unfolds in colors yet untold,
A dream, a sunrise, brave and bold.
If you permit, I'll speak the words that start,
If you permit, then let me now impart.

Should I lose control, embrace you near,
And steal the red that paints your lips so dear?
Do not look at me with such a piercing gaze,
Now restrain your heart in hidden ways.
Lest the world should see, and shadows fall,
Hide me in your heart, beyond recall.
A fear I hold, I cannot quite define,
Secrets I've harbored, yours and mine.
If you permit, then let me now impart,
From the day my gaze first met your light,
A dream, a sunrise, bloomed within my heart.
If you permit, I’ll speak the words that start,
If you permit, I’ll speak the words that start.
